    Usually statutory rape cases don’t happen unless the parents or the girl report it, but it’s hard to say with this case. It would require a DA to figure out who the girl is and know that she is in his district. Unless the feds decide to get involved. If he transported her across state lines I think it becomes federal.

    Just seems that he made a horrible decision no question. Obviously I have little to no knowledge about how things went down but that girl looks young but maybe doesn't act real young?

    A lot of sudden experts in statutory laws and age of consent in this forum... you all come from reddit or something?

    I knew girls in high school who were dating older guys. Nothing ever happened.

    I agree. I had a great fake ID (real, just not me) and went to bars regularly from 14+ on. I hit on girls all the time in those years and some technically committed a crime. However, I was never going to turn them in. I wasn't going to do anything but be thankful.

    Just pointing out that the allegation is that he had a relationship with this girl. Not a one night stand.

    I went to HS with a smoking hot, over-developed gal. she was a friend. When we were 16, almost 17, she was dating a 20-year old college dude. Honestly, we were a little weirded out with what a 20-year old would want with a 16-year old. The dude was kind and honest enough. I’d have felt weird being the college dude coming to HS sports where people know your age and the other side, but if they in public, nobody would have known any different or suspected the age difference.

    they ended up marrying, btw.

    not saying it’s right, not saying it’s wrong. this story just brought that experience up.

    Do you want to make a few more posts in response to the same post? I was trying to find a summary video for him..... or do you want me to wait to respond so you can ask me a few more questions?

    let me tell you more about the video you posted blindly:

    some random youtuber created a fake interview with the girl involved, played like it's a real interview. nothing summary about it. took me 40 seconds to realize it was bogus.

    I get that you're trying to inform, but this is sort of the opposite. youtube is full of trash content—just saying.

    happy to keep posting about it so that others don't have to scratch their heads in confusion like i did. :)
